An American Nightmare

The Jeffrey Dahmer Story

They were golden boys who killed with sudden savagery. The trial revealed a dark drama too evil to believe. Handsome, rich, bronzed champion athletes, Erik and Lyle Menendez were the stunning symbols of the California dream. The sons of a high-powered Hollywood executive and his beautiful wife, they lived in a pampered world of Beverly Hills mansions, swimming pools, and private tennis coaches. But the dream became a nightmare when police found the butchered bodies of the boys’ parents, Jose and Kitty, in the family room of their five-million dollar mansion. Only days after the couple was laid to rest, the brothers began an appalling spending spree, buying Rolex watches, designer clothes and a new Porsche. Seven months later, all of Hollywood was stunned when the 18- and 21-year-old brothers were arrested for the horrendous killings. In wrenching testimony, Lyle & Erik accused their father of sexually brutalizing then since they were children—claiming his sadistic acts of perversion and cruel violence drove them to their unspeakable crime. Bestselling author Don Davis takes you inside one of the most riveting cases in California’s history, laying to bare the shattering secrets of a tormented family.

A comprehensive text useful in the day-to-day work of designing sound systems. It is a practical manual that carefully examines a step-by-step method of accurately predicting such variables as accoustic gain, clarity of sound, and required electrical input power while plans are still on the drawing board. Emphasizing the time-energy frequency analyzer, the authors discuss problems that might occur in a sound system as it evolves through design, installation, equalization, operation, and maintenance. A necessary addition to the library of anyone involved in audio engineering.

Eugene Cernan

La più grande avventura del secolo scorso: la folle, intensa e appassionante corsa alla conquista dello spazio e della Luna, il mondo a noi più vicino ma anche incredibilmente lontano, orbitando a oltre 380.000 km dalla Terra. Chi meglio del comandante della missione che ha portato gli ultimi uomini sul nostro satellite naturale può raccontare gli eventi straordinari culminati nei moduli che sono discesi sul suolo lunare e nei rover che ne hanno percorso la superficie? Eugene Cernan, assieme al giornalista Don Davis, narra con stile discorsivo e linguaggio privo di inutili complessità la vera storia della corsa allo spazio degli Stati Uniti. Una competizione che doveva essere vinta ad ogni costo, sullo sprone delle parole del presidente Kennedy, e proseguita attraverso mille difficoltà fino al successo finale. Ma se gli astronauti erano consapevoli di dover affrontare enormi rischi, dar prova di coraggio, studiare e sudare per essere in grado di compiere sforzi fisici e mentali quasi sovrumani, anche le loro famiglie dovevano affrontare grandi sacrifici. Ed è questa la forza della narrazione di Cernan: non mostrare solamente il lato eroico e affascinante della vita di un astronauta, ma anche i dubbi, le paure, i fallimenti e le frustrazioni sia del protagonista che dei suoi familiari. Il libro è disponibile anche in cartaceo solo presso l'editore. La versione ebook però contiene un’estesa galleria fotografica di immagini appositamente restaurate, molte delle quali inedite e provenienti dagli archivi della famiglia Cernan.

L'ultimo uomo sulla Luna

Much vaunted comic book-style film in which an FBI agent realises that, in order to defeat a powerful crimelord, he must join forces with his lifelong enemy. Ultimately never gained a cinema release.

One State, Two State, Red State, Blue State is one of the funniest and most outrageous political and social satires of recent years. It hilariously captures the insanity and hypocrisy of our political dialogue, our religious and cultural institutions, and everyday life. A satiric Grand Slam, it touches all the bases of our modern-day culture wars.
